 Quick Fact: What is Call Display 
Call Display is a telephone company service. It provides the identification information of persons calling your telephone number. The Call Display information is supplied by the telephone company between the first and second ring as a series of special codes. The information includes the time and date of the call, the telephone number of the caller, and, in some areas, even caller's name.

fonXL Call Display Screen Saver uses this Call Display information to provide with detailed information on your incoming calls. Without Call Display from your telephone company the screen saver cannot determine the telephone number of incoming calls.

Review

Review by Free Downloads Central:

However well we think of the Internet, most businesses depend on phone calls - clients usually phone rather than write before they come and purchase your product or your service. How many calls have you missed this year, going out to lunch, having a coffee break and suchlike? fonXL Screen Saver won't let you miss a single call.

fonXL Screen Saver is not just a screensaver: it works along with your modem to track phone calls and turns your computer into a personal call display unit. The program handles phone calls why you're away, reminds you of important calls and returns missed calls. It can also display the name and phone number of the caller if you have CallerID compatible modem and have subscribed to Call Display service, available in North America and some other countries.

This handy utility will boost up your business just by getting the most of the calls you already receive. Download it today and see that for yourself.
